Product Description

Review
'You'll never look at life in the same way again. Pick up this book and prepare to have your emotions wrung so completely you'll be sobbing your heart out one minute and laughing through your tears the next. Tully could be any one of us -- a young woman who is strong, full of hope and carrying a lot of childhood baggage. Her experiences of pain, despair and betrayal are offset by moments of dazzling joy, love and, above all, friendship. Read it and weep -- literally' Company 'A lovely and resonant evocation of that first great bond between woman...It's deeply moving' Anne Rivers Siddons 'As a first novel this is quite astonishing' Bookseller

Product Description
The astonishing debut novel from international number one bestselling author Paullina Simons, now beautifully repackaged Tully Makker is a tough young woman from the wrong side of the tracks and she is not always easy to like. But if Tully gives friendship and loyalty, she gives them for good, and she forms an enduring bond with Jennifer and Julie, schoolfriends from very different backgrounds. As they grow into the world of the seventies and eighties, the lives of the three best friends are changed forever by two young men, Robin and Jack, and a tragedy which engulfs them all. Against the odds, Tully emerges into young womanhood, marriage and a career. At last Tully Makker has life under control. And then life striles back in the most unexpected way of all...

5.0 out of 5 stars Lifeview changing, 9 Jun 2005
By A Customer
I first read this book when I was about 15, and it changed the way I looked on life forever. It was like I could feel and understand everything Tully went through as if it were myself. Reading about the character Tully Makker's own battles helped me to see the world differently and motivated me to keep on going through every obstacle life threw in my path. I've since read Red Leaves (also good) and other works by Paullina Simons. But Tully is by far her best work to date. Every time I read it, its like reading it for the first time from another person's perspective.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best book I ever read, 24 Jan 2007
By S. Kavanagh "Sarah" (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this book after reading Girl in Times Square and loving it and as it had such amazing reviews on Amazon. I LOVED this book, I loved the characters and I loved the storytelling. I finished it, then reread it straightaway and each time you reread it you realise why characters behave like they do at certain points so it even manages to improve. I bought it for all my friends for Christmas and hope they love it as much!

5.0 out of 5 stars This is not a good book.....IT'S A FANTASTIC BOOK!!!, 15 Sep 2006
By L. Scarpati "LAS" (Yorkshire, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Tully Makker feels like my friend. I have read 'Tully' so many times over the past 7 years, the pages have started to fall out and the cellotape only bulks the book up even more! I could not believe that this masterpiece was Paullina Simons' first novel. Some writers could never achieve something like this in their whole careers. Paullina Simons has written this so well, if I were Tully.....I wouldn't be able to choose, and I've often wondered what happened to the characters later in their lives. This novel isn't just about, growing up and falling in love. It's about surviving a tough life and having to make tough choices up until the very last page.
Tully is Simons' original tough, independent woman with endearing vulnerabilities who paved the way for Tatiana in the Bronze Horseman. The best read in a long time, this novel is un-put-downable!
